 take a good look at the end of the address it is in no way identical to the 66 which is h5so no hs5o  Wink   13zb1hQbWVsc2S7ZTZnP2G4undNNpdh5so

it is only the first 7 characters which are identical but several utilities can allow you to find some in this range with even more characters just for example

i know that, and thats what im talking about men Cheesy , its located in the range of 200.. to 3fff.. Smiley if you find same 7 or 8 digits of the rmd160 that means its in that range bro, so, when i post the public key substracted from 125 to 110. i told you this is in the 110 bits because it start with the 4 same rmd160 of other wallet in 110, that means its in the same range of 110, like you said bro in 66 20d45a6a same start of wallet 66, and the range is 319afc.... so, do you understand what im talking ?
Yeah, that's not how it works...I can generate 2^20 unique addresses and roughly 64,000 will have matching first 4 characters of their rmd160 value.
Think of it this way; there are only 2^16 (or 16^4) combinations of the same 4 leading rmd160 characters; in all of the 2^160 combinations.

I don't understand anything, the start string of the address don't have any relationship with the range

I can do 1 quintillion/sec 1,000,000,000,000,000,000 but the range of 110 alone is 649037107316853453566312041152512 or
six hundred forty nine nonillion ,
thirty seven octillion ,
one hundred seven septillion ,
three hundred sixteen sextillion ,
eight hundred fifty three quintillion ,
four hundred fifty three quadrillion ,
five hundred sixty six trillion ,
three hundred twelve billion ,

I will try with kangaroo with an old gt1030 which does about 370 Trillion/ sec and about as much electricity as an led bulb. have you scanned any of 110?

i have the same speed 7terrak per sec thats 7 quantillion per sec , thats why i told you my speed is slow im running bsgs on 8 core cpu, so i cant complete the entire range in 1 week or month, thats why  i ask for help here.

they find same firsts caracteres hash160 of the puzzle 66  so logic its on that bit range 66
thats why when i found the same 4 hex of 110 bits of other 110 bit wallet i say that, im just asking the question and if in 2020 they cracked the 110 bit, if you have a good speed and you can search for the entire range in 1 hour you can try the public key, maybe im wrong but if its correct, you will earn smthing, Smiley you can substract the bit 125 but you wont find a hash same as you have in a specific bit range start with same digits, its luck i think when i found it but maybe im not wrong ,, if we found hashes starts with same 4 digits in all bit ranges then im wrong, that information i dont have, i dont know how the hash160 works so, i just want you to help guys maybe there is smthing.

I have. I have over 33GB of tame points (DP 25) in the 110 bit range lol. But I wouldn’t chase down a 4 character h160 that’s for sure lol.
Also, the “1 hour” entire range scan had me laughing 😂

if you have better speed search from 1f00000000000000000000000000:7fffffffffffffffffffffffffff from 109 to 111 bits,

if you have good speed and can finish this range in 1hour, you wont lose nothing, we will split the reward Smiley thank you Smiley
How can you search for a 125 bit range public key in 109-111 bit range? And why would you care about the first 4 characters of a hash160 of another random address?
Please explain the magic here.😉
You can shrink a search range via subtraction of a known public key.

If you shrink #125 down to 110 bits, you will create 2^15 new public keys. One of those will be guaranteed to be in the 110 bit range.

I do not understand the initial post of finding the first 4 hash160 characters...IMO, that does not help nor narrow down the search to that one pubkey.

Guys I'm telling you, Satoshi solved the puzzle, few days after I pointed him to this thread, he did it with his super GPU computer, and I bet he is busy with the next one #125. I just didn't expect him to take the loots alone, we were partners.🤣 at least let me loot the garbage coins. Lol.

Not a 32 times bigger but √32 like ~5.65. this not full space search, this birthday collision check.
You can compare 'expected operations' for

Hi @zielar, nice to see you here

2. Someone has a tool to find #125 soon

As we know the puzzle 125 is 32 times bigger than puzzle 120 but prize is only a 4% bigger, i doubt about that such "magic" tool exists. But we don't have way to know.

If that exists it should be a mathematical approach.

Nice to see you too :-)
Despite the passage of time and the fact that people who are more active in the subject know each other only from here - there is a smile on your face knowing that everything is fine with you :-)
It is also certain that no matter how much time passes - the solution of the next thresholds will certainly take place, whether it is due to the fact that the technology will develop further or because the value of assets, despite being only 4% more - will be much higher in terms of physical currency than today. Time will tell. I also believe that we will get to know the finder of solution 120 and how he did it, how much time he needed for it, or at least the private key to complete the list of keys of solved addresses. Greetings!

I made some computations. Used Python 3. I was curious if the next puzzle can be ax+b=y.
d1, d2, d3 are corresponding private keys from puzzle. Needed to compute a and b.

We already know that puzzles a random and there is not math relationship between them

I made some computations. Used Python 3. I was curious if the next puzzle can be ax+b=y.
d1, d2, d3 are corresponding private keys from puzzle. Needed to compute a and b.

First script for puzzle 66:

Code:
#!/usr/bin/env python3
import math

d1=0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000007cce5efdaccf6808
d2=0x000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000f7051f27b09112d4
d3=0x000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001a838b13505b26867

asqr=(d2-(d2/d1))/d1
a=math.sqrt(asqr)
print("a =",a)
b=d2/(a*d1)
print("b =",b)
d4=a*d3+b
print("next =",hex(int(d4)))

Second script for puzzle 120:

Code:
#!/usr/bin/env python3
import math

d1=0x000000000000000000000000000000000000016f14fc2054cd87ee6396b33df3
d2=0x00000000000000000000000000000000000035c0d7234df7deb0f20cf7062444
d3=0x0000000000000000000000000000000000060f4d11574f5deee49961d9609ac6

asqr=(d2-(d2/d1))/d1
a=math.sqrt(asqr)
print("a =",a)
b=d2/(a*d1)
print("b =",b)
d4=a*d3+b
print("next =",hex(int(d4)))

The output is however strange, because a=b!

This means the next puzzle is multiplied and added to it the same value, I mean the multiplicator and later adding a number are the same.

First script gives:

Code:
a = 1.4068509690560507
b = 1.4068509690560507
next = 0x254d0fd348f800000

Second script gives:

Code:
a = 6.122671382779787
b = 6.122671382779785
next = 0x251a1b44dd0e160000000000000000

What can mean that just raising the value(s) of a and b can give next puzzle private key!

It is a real shame that the solver of #120 still didn't give us the private key.
Dude, if you're out there, please find a way to communicate it

There are various reasons why we still don't have the key:
1. The finder wishes to remain anonymous
2. Someone has a tool to find #125 soon
3. The withdrawal was made by someone outside the forum
4. Someone has some other purpose in it, so as not to reveal themselves.

It is certainly puzzling that BCH and BTG have not been paid out from this wallet so far, while the payment was made to the address without any other transaction before, nor was it sent further - which also raises the suspicion that the finder could use some tool that worked for a long time -> found the right key and made the withdrawal, but the initiator himself still does not know that he found solution #120. A lot of unknowns, but I believe that eventually someone will somehow provide a solution, because the solution #120 without indicating the key to the public will simply be a blow to the whole history of these puzzles.
